When we do aerobic exercise we are not just getting ourselves all hot and sweaty, we are working toward a goal and we need to measure ourselves along the way. In addition to weight, height, BMI (Body Mass Index), and BP (BloodPressure), we need to know our THRR(Target Heart Rate Range). So much to keep track of.
Our lungs […]
Recreation is another word for relax and reduce the risk of heart ailment and heart disease and heart attack! So how do I relax? Several ways, but one of my choices would be Golf.
Think about golf—no cart and you have walking, swinging at the ball—muscles are worked—the challenge will also work our mind. There is strategy, skill, […]
Music is one way I motivate myself during exercise. It seems a fast paced march helps me walk at a good speed that will give my heart a workout. A quick count rock tune gets my body moving to the beat, and my lungs pumping air like they should—I can hold a conversation while I exercise (rule […]
We have only olne pair of feet for our whole life. They provide a number of needed tasks we take for granted, and they are in charge of support-shock absorption-balance-and comfort-to name a few of the items they do for us each and every day. I do believe that my feet have been taken for granted more than any other part […]

This system will allow me to workout at home, […]
This is a workout aid that I am very impressed with. The more I see it —the more I believe it should be standard issue for heart patients. From my observation, the system is complete, easy to use, and has so many different possible routines that there is not one single heart rehabilitation exercise need it could not help fulfill.
I […]
I am still on my quest to find the rowing machine that is right for me. I have tried another machine, this time at the manufacture. I was doing my other job, and entered a building I knew was the host to manufacturing—was I ever surprised to see exercise equipment of various sizes and descriptions […]
I have been writing about the Heart Health Rowing routine. The first thing is to (With Your Doctor’s Recommendation) try the exercise, don’t worry too much about the kind of machine. Ask others in the facility why they row, how they row, and what machine is the favorite for them.
After asking and getting some idea […]
The Lifecore 100 commercial rowing machine is the first one I have tried since the page “About Rowing Machines”
This rowing machine is a real professional type exercise machine—not one I could buy for home. The works were so smooth that I could hardly tell I was working out. Until I quit the workout and tried […]
